      From: liz@paradoxcommunity.com              That would make it slightly harder to do what he wants as he needs to go       to record #1, read a value, then inside the loop, go to record #2 and       compare it to record #1, then repeat for every pair of records (or       something like that). This kind of thing is easier in a loop where you       control the record movement rather than the loop controlling it.              Given what Anders had to say, I'm guessing a secondary index and       setRange would simplify life greatly.              FWIW,              Liz                     Egbert Babst wrote:       > Craig,       > why not using a scan-loop instead?       > You could avoid the setGenFilter by using the for-clause of then scan like:       > scan TCBounce1 for TCBounce1."HospitalNumber"=stNewMR       > etc...       > endScan       >       > Egbert       >       >              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
